Default Re: Cooking the Banana flower bud

Not all banana cultivar blossoms are pleasant. Some have extremely high oxalic acid content. The plantain types have generally good blossom for cooking while the cavendish types are on the more challenging side to eat.

I have posted a recipe eons ago when this forum was still starting.
